S21 77. I Don’t Deserve to be Here

After a blink, Louis was running again, following the others. “Mommy, Emily!”

It wasn’t just those two’people, Frank, who was standing closest to the door, turned around. “What’s wrong, Louis?”

“Auntie plans to leave. She is preparing her suitcase!”

Emily’s jaw dropped. Panic, she shouted at the door. “Auntie, are you listening to me? Please don’t go.”

Louis didn’t want to lose. He slipped between Philip and his parents then stopped beside Emily. “Auntie, please don’t go! None of this is your fault. You don’t need to feel guilty.”

However, a few moments later, Barbara opened the door with a sad expression. A suitcase stood by her side.

“Barbara, where are you going?” Kara sighed, worried.

“Sorry, I can no longer stay here. I don’t want people to think bad about you. It should be Mom and me who bear the consequences. Not you guys.”

Frank hurriedly held her arm. “Can you ignore them? Those people are just jealous of you. They don’t like it when you are happy. They forget that I am your brother. My house is also yours.”

“And your leaving won’t change things either, Barbara,” Kara continued.

However, Barbara shook her head. “But they are right. I should have been by Mom’s side. I should focus on taking care of her, not leaving

her alone.”

“Mom is in the right care,” Frank emphasized.

“Still… I shouldn’t be happy while she suffers. I don’t deserve to live in your house. I don’t deserve to feel the luxury and comfort here, especially for free. I’m ashamed to be a parasite in your family.”

Frank exhaled heavily. His jaw throbbed in annoyance. “Stop

comparing yourself to a parasite, okay? You are not a parasite. You are my sister.”

“A sister who came because she was after your wealth. That was the original purpose of my arrival.”

“Mom’s purpose, not yours. Everyone can see that.”

Barbara shook her head weakly. “Don’t rate me too highly. I’m not that good. I supported her plan.”
